Two volumes that re-present earlier Cuban material, looking at the Bay of Pigs, from the point of view of the Cuban people and the military. Corrales is recognized as one of the leading figures of the so-called "Epic Photography of the Cuba Revolution" following Fidel Castro's rise to power in 1959. From 1959 to 1964, he was a member of the photographic teams in Revolucion daily and Cuba magazine.
